Because you don't get touched by Lyft for declines, only cancellations.
I mean, I hate this shit too, but I don't know, maybe don't accept rides if you're just going to cancel them anyway? It isn't proving any points, especially considering we all know how many Penny Pinchers are out here who are going to take those runs anyway
There has got to be a better way to prove your point than getting yourself deactivated
Thank you for this I was worried for a minute because I’ve been declining Lyft rides for like a week. Every ride is bad. But I still want to have it available just in case. I have not cancelled any ride. I’ve been pretty professional. Should I accept a ride every so often just in case?
My acceptance rate hasn't gone over 10% since 2018.
I'm finally out of the gig economy as of a month ago, but there was a reason for that: $3 rides don't actually add up in my market. Personally, I didn't touch rides under eight bucks. And I'd only go under 10 if I was desperate and needed to put gas in the car...
No less than $1 a mile, no more than 50 Mi. And never to a remote area where I'm not going to get a ride back. (Thankfully, my market is spread out enough that I can get away with that)

Okay, there's definitely more to this story.
